Porch talk focuses on Fuller House

The Bay Village Historical Society celebrates the 130th year of the Fuller House on Sunday, July 9, with a talk by developer Robert Corna.

Corna purchased the Bay Village home in 1981 to make way for the Cashelmara development and donated it to Baycrafters, now BAYarts. The 120-ton house was sailed 2.5 miles on Lake Erie to its new home in the Metroparks Huntington Reservation, making front-page headlines around the world. Corna will talk about the history of the house and its famous Lake Erie voyage.

The free porch talk begins at 2:15 p.m. Guests are asked to bring their own lawn chairs. Visit www.bayhistorical.com for additional information.
